The fact thereโs a โwinter crisisโ every year should be a source of shame for politicians and NHS leaders. It reflects a recurrent failure to plan, invest, and address root causes of hospital and ED crowding, in the face of societal, demographic and health trends. @RCollEM 1/8

๐จWe have a new title: BMA Residents ๐จ
A long time coming, and after much hard work, junior doctors will now be called Resident Doctors.
This new title better reflects their huge range of skills and responsibilities.

If we as a nation are serious about police officers spending one million fewer hours per year on mental health emergency work, we must be serious about planning and investing in one million more hours per year of health care staff time for this work

Picket line at Poole Hospital today #ConsultantStrike
Thank you to our colleagues who are working today to provide a safe emergency service.
#FixConsultantPay in order to recruit and retain experienced doctors for the NHS.
@BMA_Consultants
At this time I would be preparing for my shift in ED.
Today, instead, Iโm joining the picket line for the #ConsultantStrike.
The government needs to address 15 years of pay erosion and commit to a properly independent pay review process.

A message from our co-chairs @_VivekTrivedi and @RobLaurensonD4P for all junior doctors on strike for the next five days. Thursday morning we ask you to show your support at picket lines. For the remaining time, donโt go into work - rest, see friends and family, and recharge.
A consultant is an expert in their field. They are employed to give advice to others on that particular subject.
That describes the role of both consultant doctors and consultant practitioners in healthcare.

Yes, they have different training pathways and different scope of practice. We should welcome structured pathways to achieve consultant practitioner status.
Denigrating individuals who have worked just as hard and achieved a great deal is nonsense.
